If you loved It's a Flickering Life, try Mom, Is That You?!
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Yoji Yamada, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to It's a Flickering Life, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mom, Is That You?! is
A gentle film about a middle-aged son trying to reconnect with his aging mother. Akio travels to Tokyo and finds her vibrantly happy, hanging out with a suspiciously nice new friend. It's a movie about the way people change, or don't.
